How to use different font weight for CJK for Strong Emphasis?

Questions

In Chinese writing, we usually use Sans font for strong, instead of a weight delta, and I want a different font weight for those Chinese characters. How can I achieve this? (Chinese in sans already seems “strong”. There is no need for further weight delta.)

(Desired effect: CJK characters are at Regular weight, while latin characters are Bold.)

You could use a regular expression to only select Chinese characters:

#show strong: it => {
  show regex("\p{Han}"): it => {
    set strong(delta: 0)
    set text(font: ...)
    it
  }
  it
}

This kinda works. However, settings delta: 0 doesn’t seem to work. I worked with setting text(weight: 100) instead.
